J. Wakefield Brewing will be celebrating the season kick-off of Johnathan’s favorite college football team, by barbecuing gator, a reference to the mascot of their opening-night opponent and arch rival. The “Drain the Swamp Cookout” will take place on Sunday, August 18th from 4:00 p.m. to 8 p.m. Tickets cost $30 and include one beer, a plate of food, and a Dyme Lyfe U Turnover Chain. Tickets available on Eventbrite, here.

Karl Hayden, better known as “El Bearded Chef” from Hate Mondays Tavern will be cooking fresh gator tacos, gator sandwiches, smoked gator and non-gator options like ribs and pulled pork, along with some classic BBQ sides.

The brewers at JWB have created a special Drain The Swamp (6.5% ABV) New England-style IPA just for the occasion.

Fat Point Brewing’s Oatmeal Stout and Ryeght Angle IPA have been awarded medals at the 2019 U.S. Open Beer Championship – the only competition to include beers from professional breweries and award-winning home breweries.

Concrete Beach Brewery will serve as official craft beer sponsor of upcoming Florida Supercon at the Miami Beach Convention Center, hosted by ReedPOP – the world’s leading producer of pop culture events – this July 4-7, 2019.

This is a second take of a Supercon-inspired ale, and with this new beer, the brewery worked with local artist and friend, Golden.
